Knitting: Scarf
This comfy scarf is named after the small town of Idyllwild, CA - a forested retreat steps from the Pacific Crest Trail in the San Jacinto Mountains.
Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
The Cedar Glen Mitts are perfect for the odd ball of special yarn in your stash! I designed them to be super customizable – you can change up the yarn colors, the yarn weight, and the way you finish them. The knitting stays interesting with a foliage-inspired lace panel and short rows for shaping, and the finished mitts are just the thing for y...
Knitting: Coat / Jacket
As temperatures start to warm up, I find myself shirking off my heavy coat as soon as possible. This wool jacket is perfect for that in between time when it’s too cold to go without a jacket but too warm for a winter coat. It’s checkered with tiny bows, with a relaxed blouse-y shape and elbow length sleeves. Perfect for a picnic or a baseball g...
Knitting: Clutch
I’m not really a “trendy” person. I go for classic shapes and I own a lot of vintage (read: old) clothing. But I’ve fallen for two trends this fall – scallops and oversized clutches. Put them together, and you get Scallop of the Sea, an oversized, scalloped, fold-over beauty that’s big enough to hold your wallet AND iPad, but hot enough to take...

Knitting: Cowl
The Chevron Sunshine Cowl is the third of three patterns designed especially for TEA+WOOL, the tea-dyed yarn I created for WORK+SHELTER. It’s knit flat with an eyelet chevron pattern, and then seamed to create a cowl shape. It can be worn loose, or doubled up for extra warmth.
Knitting: Cowl
The Tiny Cables Cowl is the second of three patterns designed especially for TEA+WOOL, the tea-dyed yarn I created for WORK+SHELTER. It’s knit flat with an eyelet cable pattern (no cable needle required!), and then seamed to create a cowl shape.

The Basketweave Neckerchief is the first of three patterns designed especially for TEA+WOOL, the tea-dyed yarn I created for WORK+SHELTER. It’s knit flat with a textured stitch pattern, and then seamed to create a neckerchief shape.
Knitting: Sleeveless Top
Finishing School is a classic sleeveless sweater with an eye for detail. The sweater is designed to fit closely with gentle shaping around the waist, a curved hem and a sporty sailor collar. If you are scared of finishing, this sweater is for you, guiding you through each finishing technique before you can move on to knitting the next section o...
